                     These prompts are used to generate stories, poems, jokes or other forms of creative writing.

                     They encourage imaginative responses.
                     Example: Write a story about a robot that learns how to paint.

                     Instructional Prompts

                     These are used to give step-by-step guidance or tutorials. They are helpful in teaching processes,
                     coding or providing directions.
                     Example: Explain how to bake a chocolate cake in five simple steps.

                     Comparative Prompts
                     These prompts ask the AI to compare and contrast two or more things. They are helpful for making
                     decisions or understanding differences.

                     Example: Compare smartphones and tablets in terms of features and usage.

                     Problem-solving Prompts

                     These are used to find solutions  to  questions  or  challenges. They often include  the phrases
                     How can, What are ways to or Suggest a method.

                     Example: How can we reduce plastic waste in schools?

                     TIPS FOR WRITING EFFECTIVE PROMPTS
                         Be clear and specific: Avoid vague words. Clear instructions help the AI understand your
                         intent.

                         Use proper formatting: Use bullet points or numbered lists if needed to structure your prompt.
                         Mention the desired output type: Tell the AI if you want a paragraph, list, story, poem, etc.

                         Provide context: A bit of background helps the AI give a more accurate answer.
                         Avoid ambiguity: Keep your language direct and focused.

                         Experiment and refine: Try different versions of the same prompt to compare results.

                     COMMON MISTAKES IN PROMPT ENGINEERING

                         Being too general: Prompts like Tell me something are too open-ended and may lead to
                         irrelevant answers.
                         Asking multiple questions at once: This confuses the AI. Break complex prompts into smaller
                         parts.
                         Using poor grammar or spelling: Mistakes can mislead the AI or affect the quality of the
                         response.
                         Lack of purpose: Not knowing what you want from the prompt can lead to vague or incorrect
                         results.
                         Ignoring output limitations: Expecting the AI to give personal opinions or real-time facts may
                         not work.
